Yep, that's true. I'll have to be conservative with progressing squats and deadlifts and concentrate on the presses.

Press - 20kg 1x10, 40kg 1x5, 50kg 1x5, 60kg 1x3, 70kg 1x1, 77.5kg 8,7,5@9.5 (PR) - tough
Chins - 11,9,8
GPP - 3 rounds, 10 reps: Hammer Rows, pushups, db curls, rolling dbs/tri. pushdowns, laterals - forearms were screaming, had to switch to triceps pushdowns

Bench press -20 kg 1x12, 60kg 1x5, 80kg 1x3, 100kg 1x1, 110kg 1x1, 120kg 5,4@9.5,10 (5RM PR), 110kg 1x6@9 - lowered the weight for 3rd set, so from now on I'll do one top set +2 slightly lighter sets.
Incline press - 20kg 1x5, 60kg 1x5, 80kg 3x5@9 - these were alright. Adding them in as assistance for the press/bench. Last time I trained them I felt a carryover to my press lockouts.
DB bench press - 30kgs 35 reps total, some paused

Still more bench and press pr's! You're on a great pr roll. Keep it going!

[Róbert Kovács]

Thanks, I'll try to keep on rolling. The sets across lasted longer than expected, about 8 weeks, although it's over now. Will be interesting to see how far the one top set will go.

06/04

Press - 20kg 1x10, 40kg 1x5, 50kg 1x5, 60kg 1x3, 70kg 1x1, 80kg 1x1, 85kg 1x5@9.5 (PR), 77.5kg 2x5@9 - strong, back-offs felt like speed sets
Chins - 12,10,9 - not bad, narrowed my grip slightly, developed some forearm pain recently in my pinky-line, this seemed to relieve that.
Dips - 13,11,10 - weaker than expected, but at least there was zero pain in my shoulder.

Squat - 20kg 1x10, 60kg 1x5, 80kg 1x5, 100kg 1x3, 122.5kg 1x8, 107.5kg 1x8 - exhausting, but the barspeed was quite good
Rack pull (on 25kg +3x5kg) - 60kg 1x5, 100kg 1x3, 125kg 1x5 - 7.5cm belt, no pain.

Some general lower back discomfort after exercises, plus some cracking in it. Lumbar overextension is causing some pain in upper right part, but it has been like that since yesterday's press session.

06/06

Bench press - 20kg 1x10, 60kg 1x5, 80kg 1x3, 100kg 1x1, 110kg 1x1, 120kg 1x1, 132.5kg 2x1@9.5,10 (absolute PR), 122.5kg 1x3@9.5 (PR)
Chins - bwx2, 8.75kgx1, 18.75kg 3x5 - not bad

06/09

Press - 20kg 1x10, 40kg 1x5, 50kg 1x5, 60kg 1x3, 70kg 1x1, 80kg 1x1, 87.5kg 1x1, 95kg 2x1@9,10 (absolute PR), 87.5kg 2x2@9 - the second single with 95 was the longest grinder so far in my training history, it literally was motionless for a good 3 seconds, a thought crossed my mind: what if I run out of air? Back-off doubles were strong.
Chins - 12,11,10 - these went well today. Pinching my thumbs consciously against my index fingers reinforced the grip and made the set more solid.
Dips - 17,12,11 - better than last time.
